[MacPerl] module for mimicking netscape . . .

[dfield@biomail.ucsd.edu]

I need a module for MACPERL that will open a connection to a URL and talk
to a CGI script.  It must be out there somewhere. . . .!

I have postclient.pl, a script which works on unix to open a socket connect
with a remote URL, but I don't see how it's possible to make this script to
work on a mac . . . For one thing, it takes a system call from another
script to pass in the variables for starting the connect, and as I
understand it, system calls don't work in MACPERL.  

I'm just starting with MACPERL so all advice is welcome and nothing is to
simple not to point it out.

cheers,
Dawn
